THOROUGHBREDS
Gold Coast: Race 4; #4 I Am Caviar
She's royally bred (I Am Invincible x Black Caviar), but unfortunately, that's where the comparisons stop for her. She's won two of 16 and has plenty of early gate speed, but she stops quickly. She was good last start at Ipswich behind Thankyou Henry, and if anyone can turn an out-of-form mare's form around it is Tony Gollan, but I can't have her starting favourite anytime soon on current form.
Gold Coast: Race 7; #10 Billionair Baby
Won impressively last start by a good margin and produced a strong closing figure. This is a much harder race than last start however and other horses here have beaten or been competitive with him this prep.
Canterbury: Race 5; #2 Bat Out Of Hell
BAT OUT OF HELL was a winner here last start and deserves to be in the market with a low barrier as he can certainly repeat his performance. But at his price I am willing to have a small play against. This race has a slightly different shape to last time with a runner like MONARCHS BRAE in particular in the mix. Feel this race is more open than what the market currently is and the value may be to have a small play against the fave at the price.
